October volunteers where sot,14 names where used and a rota of once a fortnight was set up. It seems to have worked well as not to many complaints heard.
Eggs where gathered by various means(daylight and night) till trays where full.
Clarity of water is a problem and to this end some shell sand was purchased. After a few attempts we finally succeeded to get installed, hopefully it will cure some of our woos.
Road to hatchery patched eventually .with Scottish water paying for materials this year.
